Sumbitch it was cold. Damn cold. We we 4-5 rows from the top in a corner. The stiff wind way up there made it that much more cold. Miserably cold.



























Did I mention how cold it was?

but I was at the Liberty Bowl for the game between Tulane and Colorado.

Yeah, we opened with that Colo. team the 71 season @ TS and they walloped us, had misfortune to attend that with my sister-in-law who is Greeenie fan; my dad said never again would she make a trip with us to TS.
I was spared the LB debacle but heard many stories about the misery and cold. My GF story was her ex who also is a big Tiger fan made her go to it with him was freezing and he was so pissed they drove straight back to NO after with no stops and huge fight ensued!

I was at the 85 game. Worst game weather I ever attended (Miami game in Tiger Stadium was a close second). My wife still complains about the cold. Before the game a player told us to bet the house on Baylor.
. An LSU player????

One of my best friends played in that game for the Tigers. According to him, it seemed like nobody cared about that game, including the coaches. It showed in every aspect the week leading up to the game and during.

Yes. Hes said something like everyone was partying so much that the huddles smelled like a brewery during practice.

You are an alum of a piss poor frat if only one was excessively drunk for a bowl game or any game in act.
